Charlotte Simone; AMI Paris

1. The Party Piece

“There's a khaki sequin skirt from AMI that I have my eye on. It has beautiful silk detailing at the bottom.”

2. The Shoe

“I'm definitely a trainer girl. I've been wearing my Wales Boner x adidas ones day and night and I’m currently eyeing up a chocolate-brown suede pair from Miu Miu.”

3. The Dress

“This feathered minidress by Rixo instantly caught my attention. I’m not sure whether nine months postpartum I can quite slip into a little black dress yet – but I'm holding out hope.”

4. The Coat

“I’ve been wearing my Olive cropped wool jacket all day every day. Made using Mongolian lambswool trims in black and khaki, it's easy to pair with denim or other everyday basics.”

5. The Bag

“I use my Charlotte Simone tote every day – it's really oversized, so it’s perfect for carrying the essentials. If I’m not using that, I’m probably wearing my Prada crossbody bum bag.”

6. Jewellery Update

“I love to collect vintage pieces from antique fairs and then get them resized. I also like the relaxed charm of Spinelli Kilcollin pieces.”

7. The Winter Accessory

“It has to be a Charlotte Simone coat. A favourite right now is the Lexy in brown faux fur with rose-coloured cuffs. I wear it with my cashmere black beanie from Elder Statesman.” 

8. Beauty Essential

“My Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk lip liner is the perfect nude pink. Minimal but still noticeable.”

9. The Beauty Tool

“My Mason Pearson hairbrush is something I couldn't live without. I have very long, very tangly hair, so it comes everywhere with me.”

10. The Scent

“My favourite scent is the Aesop herbal deodorant. I use both the roll-on and the spray as a sort of fragrance. Even my husband wears it – it’s so fresh and calming.”

11. The Podcast

“I love to listen to the How I Built This podcast where entrepreneurs tell their stories of failure and success.”

12. The Book

“I've been reading Blue Sisters by Coco Mellors. We met while we were students at NYU. As a first-time mum and business owner, it can be hard to find time to read but I am almost halfway through and loving it.”

13. Tablescaping Essential

“I have this old watering jug that belonged to my grandma and I love to arrange flowers in it when I can. I use lots of vintage and odd vases gathered together for tablescaping.”

14. The Hotel

“I would love to stay at Badrutt's Palace in St. Moritz – it’s the thought of cheese fondue and all that fresh mountain air…”

15. Go-To Restaurant 

“One of my favourite local spots is Mediterraneo in Notting Hill. You can't go wrong with the pasta arrabbiata.”
